Description
Augmentin (amoxicillin / clavulanate) is a popular medication used to treat bacterial infections in kids and adults. It contains two antibiotics — amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium. They work together to fight bacterial infections, including those potentially resistant to other antibiotics.
Amoxicillin is a penicillin antibiotic that doesn’t always work when used alone. Certain bacteria have the ability to disassemble it. That’s where clavulanate, also known as clavulanic acid, comes in. Clavulanate is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that protects amoxicillin from bacteria that can break it down. This gives amoxicillin a boost by making it stick around longer to treat an infection.
